The unit was properly packed. It had all of the necessary pieces and the instructions were very clear and easily understood. The installation was simple. I did have to drill an additional hole, due to one hole on the original air box not lining up with the new shroud mounting holes. Overall I am very satisfied.

This intake is awesome! Installed in a hour with basic tools. It looks awesome and sounds even better! Bit of a gain in top end. You lose a little down low in the rpm range but it really helps the engine breath. I'd recommend to everyone!

Took a while to remove the Mass Air Sensor from the OEM intake tube; mine had a plastic "keeper." Also, radiator hose mount of stock intake tube had to be pried up with a screwdriver. Otherwise, the install wasn't bad. Get a 5/8-inch drill bit from Tractor Supply for $10, or so, to drill the hole in the air box mounting plate.
I'm getting more torque with this CAI and the sound IS BOSS when I get on it. Not quite like my 1971 Mach I Mustang's Big Daddy Thrush glass packs, but close.

install was easy sounds great under hood not sure as fuel savings but noticed a big difference in throttle response I also ordered a cat back exhaust system which I didn't install yet but when I do it should open up truck more love the fact it's a dry filter too makes a lot easier to maintain verses oil filter lil pricey but worth it

This product is made of high quality materials. Sounds awesome and the price point is right on. It took about 45 min to install. The hardest part was following the directions. The directions need to be more clarified in writing and better pictures. The Horse Power increase does not really show from the start but once at higher speeds it certainly kicks in.

Works great my engine can breath now, a noticeable difference in power and throttle response. Only thing is the instructions, vague and a little unclear. Overall a great product would recommend. Although FedEx delivered it to the wrong house twice, should change shipping company.

I installed it in my 2012 Silverado. It took me about two hours with just your basic garage tools. I did watch the k&n video on you tube and made it really easy. You can really here the engine taking in air when your on the throttle. And it look amazing under the hood.

The system itself fits very well and the appearance looks like it belongs under the hood. I gave 4 stars verses 5 on Overall Rating and Ease of Installation not due to the unit but the vague instructions. Each step does have a picture but simply stating perform that operation without detailing hardware etc does have its drawbacks. I referred to the exploded view to determine correct locations.

Easy to install and the truck is running better than ever. The truck is breathing better and has more umpf! The only issue was the intake came missing a critical installation component but K&N shipped it to me no questions asked when I called them.

Love the look and the performance increase. Only had to drill one hole to mount entire assembly, not sure why manufacturer couldn't make change to fit existing second. Only all BLACK that I could find and trust. Highly recommend!

Loved getting rid of my old bulky air intake and the hesitation that went along with it! I used a step drill bit to drill the 5/8 in hole it requires for my truck. very straight forward and simple install. Saw instant differences in my truck and gets up and goes a lot better which helps with having a lift and bigger tires on.

This CAI definitely delivered as promised. Never ceases to amaze me with the gains in throttle response. Its hard to understand why the auto mfgs build/deliver the vehicles so "choked" out. The K&N Blackhawk is one awesome setup and worth every penny. Simple install with EXCELLENT end results.AAA+++

Nice addition to truck. I was surprised when you can hear the difference. I would have given a 5 for the appearance but my plate on the tube was a bit scuffed. For the kind of money they ask the product, especially the name plate, should be flawless. Installation took about 2 hours due to the drilling a 5/8" mounting screw. There is no way this should be a 5/8" bolt. Frankly, a 1/4" would be plenty as there is no pressure on the bolt. Better yet, have the system use the existing holes.

I bought this for my 2013 Sierra and am quite satisfied. I haven't had it long enough to tell if it has helped with the fuel mileage yet. Although,it adds a nice deep sound once you push on the gas. I never believed people when they said they could feel a difference in the throttle response, but you definitely can with this. I would recommend to others.

After installing the intake it feels like my suburban is finally able to take a deep breath and put it to use. Not quite "completely different car" type of change, but a completely different feel for sure. 10/10 recommend

This is a great product.
When I went to buy a cai and I saw this I figured I could splurge and get the nicer looking one
I'm glad I did, it looks great and sounds amazing!
It completely woke the truck up, a lot better throttle response and I feel like the truck has endless power
I'd definitely recommend this to anyone/everyone
I'd buy the Blackhawk for all of my cars if they made it for them!

Easy, step by step instructions. On for about a month, no better mileage but going up grades in cruise used to downshift, now just pulls more air and goes! Down side, the box is a one size fits none. Gaps on bottoms, sides and no top means your sucking in engine air so I lined the box with 1/2" styrofoam sheeting and built a lid. For a bonus they send you a cleaner/oil kit but the Blackhawk filter doesn't use oil! ?? overall a good purchase, would buy again
